In the first part of this thesis, we study the Yamabe problem with singularities, that we can announce as follow: Given a compact Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$, find a constant scalar curvature metric, conformal to $g$, when $g$ has not…
In this paper we revisit the $\sigma_k$-Yamabe problem on $M^n$, namely, finding a conformal metric with constant $\sigma_k$-scalar curvature. We prove that on a closed manifold $\left(M,\left[g_0\right]\right)$ with positive Yamabe…

A conformal geometry determines a distinguished, potentially singular, variant of the usual Yamabe problem, where the conformal factor can change sign. When a smooth solution does change sign, its zero locus is a smoothly embedded…
